Flappy Bird vs. Angry Bird - Trending Android and iOS games 2014

2014-02-08T17:02:00.001+08:00

Look around. See anyone using a smartphone? Is their face contorted into an ugly mask of fury? Have their teeth been ground down so violently you can see their exposed nerve endings rubbing together? Are they muttering swearwords with a ferocity that's coated everything around them in foamy spittle? Do they scream abuse at anything with wings? If the answer to any two of those is yes, there's a pretty good chance they are playing Flappy Bird.

Flappy Bird vs. Angry Bird

Flappy Bird is the No 1 free app in the Google Play app store. Since its launch on the site last week, it has become such a phenomenon that people are already calling it the new Angry Birds. In it, you control a pudgy green bird. Tap the screen once and the bird soars into the air. Leave the screen untapped and it plummets to the ground. The bird lives in a world full of pipes, and you have to guide it through the gaps between them. If the bird misses one gap – just one, no matter how glancingly – it dies, and you have to start again.

My high score is four. I've got the poxy bird through four poxy gaps. I've only played it for a maximum of 20 seconds before the stupid bird cracks its useless skull against the sodding pipe again and I have to start from the beginning. I hate it. I hate Flappy Bird. And all birds now. I don't even know why it needs to go through all those pipes anyway. There's probably nothing at the end of it, anyway. Just more pipes. That bird is an idiot.

It has been suggested that the sudden and unexpected success of Flappy Bird is because its creator, Vietnam-based Dong Nguyen, has somehow spammed the app store with false ratings and accounts from cloaked IP addresses. Nguyen claims that it's merely down to luck. However, from my experience it seems more likely that Flappy Bird has been downloaded so often because it's so incomprehensibly frustrating that you feel compelled to condemn it in public the moment you play it.
People have tweeted about how much they hate Flappy Bird:

Amid the social media frenzy over Freddie Aguilar’s admission that he is deeply in love with his 16-year-old girlfriend, photos of the legendary folk singer and a young woman who may or may not be the unidentified girlfriend (see below) surfaced online on Thursday.

A certain Angelica Rosario, whose Facebook account says she lives in Singapore, posted a collage of three photos of the couple.

Two of the photos show the 60-year-old singer and the young lady kissing. The third has them looking directly at the camera.

Rosario did not provide details of her relationship to the couple.

Aguilar made his controversial admission to pep.ph reporter Glenn Regondola on Sunday night at the 5th Star Awards for Music at Solaire Resorts and Casino where he received a Lifetime Achievement Award, although the report only came out on Wednesday.

Aguilar was accompanied by his girlfriend and another female companion, whom he identified as the pregnant girlfriend of his son Jeriko.

The singer, who shot to stardom in 1979 with his signature hit “Anak”, claimed he did not know that his girlfriend was a minor when he first met her but said he was already in love when he found out.

He said he has her parents’ blessings and is ready to marry her when she’s legal and ready. He added that they have discussed the prospect of having a baby.

Jinri was quoted as saying, “I think I started. It was just a joke because I used to host a (radio) show with him. Funny thing is, at first it was parang joke lang. And then you know, I actually find him really attractive now,” Jinri said.

Edu Manzano then replied and wondered, “Really? How attractive?” Jinri then answered that “From a scale of 1 to 10 – 10 being the highest – I would say 8″ Jinri stated. Edu Manzano then replied, “You serious? Wow! Lucky guy!” to which Jinri replied by just saying that, “I’m not the type who goes for physical looks… He’s so funny. And he’s very smart, too.”

Why need to Root Android Phone | Top 10 Reasons why

2013-08-11T00:21:00.003+08:00

Android is one of the most open, versatile, and customizable mobile operating systems out there. You may think you don't need to root your phone, but you'd be surprised at how much more you can accomplish with a little work. Here are 10 reasons rooting your phone is worth the hassle.

10. Unlock Hidden Features and Install "Incompatible" Apps

Sometimes, even Android isn't open enough to give you some of the features you want. Either an app is blocked by carriers, hacks into Android's system files, or otherwise isn't available. Luckily, rooting can help with that: you can install carrier-blocked apps, get features from the latest version of Android, make incompatible apps compatible, power up your hardware, get features like Beats Audio from other phones, or emulate exclusive features like those on the Moto X. Whatever you want, rooting gives you the power to do a lot more.

9. Automate Everything

You've probably heard of Tasker, the awesome app that automates just about anything on your phone. You don't need to root your phone to use it, but if you're rooted, it can do a whole lot more. Certain tasks, like toggling 3G, GPS, changing CPU speed, turning the screen on, and others require root access. So, if you want to get the full benefit of an app like Tasker, you'll definitely want to root your phone. For more automation inspiration, check out your best Tasker actions, as well as our most recently featured Tasker tricks.

8. Boost Your Phone's Speed and Battery Life

You can do a lot of things to speed up your phone and boost its battery life without rooting, but with root—as always—you have even more power. For example, with an app like SetCPU you can overclock your phone for better performance, or underclock it for better battery life. You can also use an app like Greenify to automatically hibernate apps you aren't using—perfect for those apps that always want to run in the background when you're not looking.

7. Block Ads in Any App

Look, we of all people understand the need for occasional ads—it's how we make money. But ads can also get in the way and use up data. If you want to block ads in certain apps or on certain devices, rooting is by far the best way to do so. AdFree, AdBlock Plus, and Ad Away are all great options. Of course, if you aren't rooted, going into airplane mode works in a pinch too.

6. Back Up Your Phone for Seamless Transitions

When you move to a new Android device—or restore your device to stock for any reason—you can make your life a lot easier by backing up your apps and settings first. That way, you can get your entire setup back in just a few taps. If you aren't rooted, you can back up a few things like apps and data, but you won't necessarily be able to backup system apps and their data, or automate the entire process as well as Titanium Backup can. Check out our guide to Titanium Backup for more tips.

5. Remove Preinstalled Crapware

Titanium Backup is good for more than just backups, too. It can also uninstall that annoying, battery-draining, space-wasting crapware that comes preinstalled on so many phones these days—and, sadly, this feature is root-only. Freeze them first to make sure your phone operates normally without them, then delete them completely to free up that space. You'll be glad you did. Photo by Daniel Sancho.

4. Tweak the Dark Corners of Android

If you're the kind of person that likes to fiddle with every little feature—both on the surface and under the hood—rooting is for you. Whether you want to customize your keyboard layout with something like Keyboard Manager or give yourself faster scrolling, improved multitasking, and extra themes with Pimp My ROM, rooting gives you the power to tweak just about any corner you can think of. If you want to do it, chances are someone over on a forum like XDA has created a mini-app or tweak that will help.

3. Flash a Custom Kernel

Some of Android's most under-the-hood tweaks require a custom kernel, which you can only flash with a rooted device. The kernel is responsible for helping your apps communicate with the hardware of your phone, which means a custom kernel can give you better performance, battery life, and even extra features like Wi-Fi tethering (on unsupported phones), faster battery charging, and lots more. You can flash kernels manually or simplify the process with something like Kernel Manager.

2. Flash a Custom ROM

Okay, so you probably already know about this one—but it's one of the best benefits of rooting. A custom ROM is basically a custom version of Android, and it truly changes how you use your phone. Some merely bring a stock version of Android to non-stock phones, or later versions of Android to phones that don't have it yet. Some add a few handy features, some add lots of really unique features, and some change your operating system from head to toe. No matter what phone you have—even if it's a Nexus—we highly recommend checking out the custom ROMs out there. You won't be disappointed. Note: As some of you have noted, you don't actually need root access to flash a custom ROM—though you will need to unlock your bootloader (a process that sometimes comes bundled with root access). Still, it requires freeing your device from manufacturer lockdowns, so we've kept it in the list despite this technicality!

1. Truly Own Your Device

In the end, all of this boils down to one thing: you own your device, and you should be able to do with it as you please. Certain manufacturers and carriers try to keep that from happening, but with root access, you truly own your device and open yourself up to all the possibilities other parties try to block. Sure, there's some risk involved, and we don't usually recommend rooting other people's phones, but in the end, you can't put a price on true openness and control.

Gilas Pilipinas beats vs Korea | Fiba Asia 2013 World Cup Game Result

2013-08-10T22:52:00.000+08:00

MANILA, Philippines -- Gilas Pilipinas marched its way to the finals of the FIBA Asia Championship by beating South Korea, 86-79, in the semifinals.

The win assured the Filipinos an outright berth in the FIBA World Cup in Spain next year.

Gilas initially went for a 9-7 lead, before Korea's shooters started connecting to take the first quarter, 19-15.

Jason Castro came up with a string of plays to tie the game 19-all, but the Koreans quashed the rally to regain the lead, 28-21.

The first half ended 39-36 with the Koreans ahead.

The Nationals fought back early in the third as Castro's back-to-back baskets had Gilas surging, 42-39.

LA Tenorio and Ranidel de Ocampo kept the offense going for the Nationals to make it 56-48.

Japeth Aguilar's slam helped Gilas to extend the lead to 65-56 going into the final period.

Korea began hitting its shots again and came within three points, 67-64. Gilas momentarilly halted the run, but the Koreans came back and grabbed the lead 74-73, 4 minutes left.

Jimmy Alapag and De Ocampo allowed Gilas to take a one-point breather, 78-77, going into the final 2 minutes.

Successive triples from De Ocampo and Alapag eventually allowed Gilas to take the 86-79 win.

The victory also allowed the Philippines to vindicate its past heartbreaking losses to Korea, which foiled the country's campaigns in the 2002 Asian Games and the 2011 FIBA-Asia Championship.

Gilas will face Iran in the FIBA Asia Championship title game Sunday.

Iran defeated Chinese Taipei, 79-60, in the other semifinal match.

Watch Coach Chot Reyes, Ranidel de Ocampo, and Marc Pingris at the postgame press con. Tears of joy from two of our heroes! Great job, guys!

Gretchen Barreto itinakwil ng pamilya? | I'm not part of Barrettos anymore

2013-08-05T17:19:00.001+08:00

MANILA – Actress Gretchen Barretto was apparently irritated after she was asked to comment on the legal battles of her younger sister, Claudine.

Claudine recently filed for a temporary protection order against her estranged husband Raymart Santiago, with her legal counsel claiming that she was “abused.”

Speaking to reporters after the awarding ceremonies of the Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival on Sunday, Barretto reiterated that she does not intend to get involved in Claudine’s problems.

She also reminded the reporters that her mother Inday already disowned her in favor of Claudine.

“Itinakwil na po ako. So in other words, wala na kayong karapatan tanungin ako tungkol sa Barretto family dahil I’m not part of that family anymore. Right now, my family is Tony (her husband) and Dominique (her daughter), Marjorie and Jayjay (her siblings) and the rest of my siblings. Mahirap naman ipilit ang sarili ko sa mga ayaw sa akin,” she said.

Barretto also appealed that she and Marjorie be spared from issues that don’t concern them.

“Tahimik na rin po ang buhay ko. Kung nano-notice niyo naman po, puro career na lang at pamilya ko or anak ko ang pinagtutuunan ko ng pansin. Huwag na natin isali ako at si Marjorie sa mga gulong hindi naman na kami dapat kasali pa,” she said.

Barretto said she would rather focus on taking care of her "real" family .

“I think I learned the big lesson na lumayo na lang para walang gulo. Di ba kapag walang sinasabi, wala ng problema? Mahirap ang mga gulo-gulo, masaya na ang buhay natin,” she said.

When asked what she is praying for amid all the controversies, Barretto said: “Ang pinagdaanan ko hindi madali. 'Yung pang-iinsulto sa pagkatao ko, sa kredibilidad ko, napakasakit. Alam niyo iyon, hindi ko na kailangan sabihin iyon.”

“Bakit ba kailangan paulit-ulit tinatanong ang hindi dapat itanong? What for, para masaya kayo at bahala na ako? That’s not right. Pati prayers ko pakikialaman niyo? Bakit? Artista ako, that’s all I can give you,” she added.

Web pulsates as Chito Miranda, Neri Naig ‘sex scandal’ deepens

2013-08-05T10:06:00.000+08:00

MANILA, Philippines—Chito Miranda has become a trending topic on Twitter as netizens scour the web for a sex video allegedly involving the Parokya ni Edgar frontman and celebrity girlfriend Neri Naig.
The 7:17-minute video shows a naked couple who appear to be Miranda and his television actress sweetheart making love in various sexual positions. It made its unauthorized screen debut on YouTube, but was quickly taken down.
A cat-and-mouse game has since left YouTube pulsating as users sneak to post a copy of the sex tape that the popular video-sharing website would swiftly expunge.
Porn and file-sharing sites have since carried the steamy film.

Chito Miranda says sorry to Neri's Family

Miranda, 37, took to Instagram Saturday to say sorry for a “leaked private video of me and my girlfriend” and later tweeted to explain that his computer hard disk drive and “several other stuff” were stolen.
Later that day, the singer-songwriter posted on Instagram a photo of him and 27-year-old Naig on a beach, bearing the caption “Di n’yo kami matitinag.”

Flaks, calls for respect
The sex scandal draws mixed reactions.
INQUIRER.net reader Fulpol wonders: “What is the point of ‘video-ing’ your sex stunts with your lover? So you have performance parameters? Parang review ng basketball play. Hindi maganda ang performance kaya aayusin na ang performance next time. I don’t get it.”
Some fans came to their defense.
Al Christine (@iamalchristine) tweets that Miranda “rocked with us through the years”, while Mike™ (@iamChanMichael) appeals to netizens not to “let one private video destroy Chito Miranda‘s legacy.”
“This should be a lesson for all of us, not an entertainment for perverts,” Mike™ adds.
“OhmyGee!” Meldelyn Deloso says, admitting she has admired Naig even during the reality search show Star Circle Quest on ABS-CBN television in 2004, where she made a 6th runner up finish.
Jesther Capil ‏(@jaaaaaamPONG) professes in a tweet hashtagged #respect his unwavering admiration for his idol. “I will always be a fan of Chito Miranda, no matter what.”

No more Hayden Kho
Harold Geronimo (‏@harold_geronimo) on Twitter opines: “That Chito Miranda-Neri Naig video scandal is another lesson for all couples to stop video recording their own private affairs.”
In 2009, the Internet sizzled after a sex video of celebrity cosmetic surgeon Hayden Kho with actresses Katrina Halili and Maricar Reyes made the rounds on the web after the surgeon’s computer files were stolen. Kho would later be stripped of his professional license and slapped with lawsuits for illegally taking videos of his hot trysts.
Some web citizens simply poke fun at the scandal.
“Only Neri touches my Birdie,” tweets Boy Banatero (‏@BoyBanatero) in what seems to be a funny allusion to Parokya ni Edgar’s 1999 hit single “Don’t Touch My Birdie.”
Joey Kyle ‏(@kyleeismyname) posts a made up message of Kho to Miranda: “Been there, done that bro.”
For YouTube user PinoyCommercials096, the sex video is simply too lurid to handle. “Oh my God I can’t be in here. Oh my God…!!!!!!”
But INQUIRER.net reader Jaeger Meister shares many netizens’ dilemma: “Now, the million dollar question is: Where can I find this steamy video, huh?”

Alvin Garcia aka 'Boy Pasay" Arrested for selling Globe Wimax

2013-07-09T23:17:00.000+08:00

A series of entrapment operations recently conducted by police and Globe Telecom security personnel resulted in the arrest of three individuals involved in the illegal sale of WIMAX modems.

Arrested in the initial entrapment operation was Alvin Garcia, also known as Boy Pasay Wimax, a resident of Merville Km, 12 Access Road, Baranggay 20,1 Zone 20 in Pasay City. A follow-up operation at his residence led to the seizure of 4 Globe WIMAX modems, a computer set and around 100 pieces of Globe Sims, which are apparently used by the suspect to clone or reconfigure Sim cards for unlimited data surfing.

Police authorities also recovered from him his personal phone which showed various transactions of WIMAX selling activities confirming he is indeed Boy Pasay Wimax.

A follow-up operation after Garcia's arrest led to the apprehension of Ericson Cagara, a resident of Block 5 Lot 3 Phase 2 Topaz Street, Celina Homes, Camarin Caloocan City. He was arrested after he contacted Garcia with intention of buying hacked WIMAX modems. One unit was recovered from him.

A third entrapment operation led to the arrest of Sohayli Gagaso, a resident of Maharlika Village in Taguig. He had also sought a meeting with Garcia with intention of buying Globe WIMAX modems.

"We are relieved that the illegal sale of Globe WIMAX modems in Pasay City had been put to an end," said lawyer Froilan Castelo, Head of the Corporate and Legal Services Group.

"We would like to appeal to our subscribers to bring to our attention any suspicious offers that they may receive concerning the sale of supposed WIMAX modems," Castelo stressed, noting that certain criminal elements had utilized popular social media site Facebook in luring subscribers into this illegal activities.

Criminal charges against the suspects for violation of Republic Act 8484, also known as Access Device Act and PD 1612 Anti Fencing Law have already been filed in court, Castelo added.

Similar to other arrest made in the past, the modus operandi has been to pull-out the WIMAX modem from legitimate subscribers on pretext of an upgrade. The modems are then reconfigured and sold at a one-time cost payment.

Castelo emphasized that legitimate subscription of Globe products and services are available through Globe-authorized sellers and distributors as well as in numerous Globe Stores nationwide.

Cherry Mobile Fusion Air Full Specification, Cheap Jelly Bean tablet in the philippines

2013-07-08T13:25:00.001+08:00

Cherry Mobile finally unveiled a new super affordable Jelly Bean device that aims to give all Pinoy access to an android tablet. For just Php2,990, it’s surely a great way to invite all doubtful people to try out this tab as it’s really cheap.

Cherry Mobile promotes this new device via the hashtag #theONE. With such a low price, we could probably expect a not so impressive set of specifications. The Cherry Mobile Fusion Air sports a 7-inch 5-point multitouch display but there’s mention of the resolution yet. We expect it to be WVGA though.

The Fusion Air will be powered by a 1GHz single core processor and it’s paired with a Mali-400 GPU and 512MB of RAM. The overall configuration isn’t really that bad, but if you have some extra money in your pocket, I honestly think it’s best to get the Cherry Mobile Fusion Bolt instead. You can check out our review here.

How to Downgrade BM622 - TUTORIAL

2013-07-08T09:41:00.002+08:00

Medyo tricky po ito, advise ko lang po is you have to follow what is written below. First of all is we have to make it sure that we are able to access or connect the Huawei BM622 4G WiMAX wireless broadband modem CPE by verifying through pinging the IP address 192.168.1.1 via CLI (command line interface) or thru web GUI (graphical user interface) on browser with same IP address at http://192.168.1.1 to make it realistic.

Whether or not the Huawei BM622 4G WiMAX wireless broadband modem CPE enable/disable its DHCP server we have also to verify our PC if we are using Dynamic or Static IP address to anticipate if the CPE device reboots failed to provide IP address or the PC itself can not acquire its IP address.

Static IP address is more preferable during TFTP firmware uploading operation to make it sure we are in the same IP address subnet and our PC is still connected even if the CPE device fail its DHCP server during power on.

To start with, the PC must be ON with the Static IP address above mention. Power off the CPE device Huawei BM622, unplug the AC/DC adapter then plug it again and remain the power is OFF.
1. Click START and RUN, then typecmdto open windows CLI (command line interface) mode
2. Typecd\to change directory i.g.C:\
3. Make sure yourbm622firmware2010.binis in local drive C:\
4. Typetftp –i 192.168.1.1 put bm622firmware2010.binas you can see from the screenshot below, wait DO NOT press enter yet until to do so.

5. Make sure or double check that the LAN cable is physically connected to the PC and to the CPE device Huawei BM622 port.
6. Using a pin or sharp item insert onto the pin hole and press the “Reset” button at the side of the CPE device Huawei BM622 as shown below snapshot.

7. Press the Power ON button of the Huawei BM622 while still pressing the "Reset" button.
8. Release the “Reset” button of the Huawei BM622 and press Enter to begin the TFTP firmware downgrade/upgrade.
9. Please wait for 1 (one) minute and reboot the modem.
10. Press “Reset” while BM622 is ON.
11. Open your browser type http://192.168.1.1 to verify or check if your firmware is already being uploaded, just do same procedure if it is unsuccessful. This tutorial is if you want to downgrade or upgrade your BM622 firmware via TFTP, this can be also applied to 4G WiMAX CPE Huawei model BM621, BM622i, BM625, and BM626.

How to Test Electrolytic Capacitor - Tutorial

2013-07-05T17:30:00.000+08:00

The best way of testing a capacitor will depends to the type of capacitor you are going to test. Electrolytic capacitors that are leaky are not so common. You can take each capacitor out on the circuit and test it using a cap checker or using your VOM, but in-circuit testing of the capacitor is quicker and save a lot of time.

Do a visual observation and inspection to the capacitor and see if there are any electrolytic capacitor are bulging (they are leaky and commonly get hot), or physically leaking (corroded terminals). Next, if the unit will power up, search for indications of an open filter caps, hum bars in the display/picture, hum in audio, flickering displays, low B+ but nothing gets hot, etc.

If you have an noticeable fault, like a lowered vertical scan on a TV set or monitor for example, to locate the capacitor that is starting to open up, you can bridge each of them with another capacitor, one at a time and see if it fixes the problem. (Experience has taught me that bad electrolytics will not -usually- kill vertical sweep completely.) In a TV set that is several years old or more, there could be more than one cap dried out (open). Check them all.

As mentioned before, leaky caps are actually quite rare, but it does happen. Shorted tantalums and electrolytics capacitors in a power supplies can actually explode. Obviously, leaky caps must be taken out from the circuit to replace them for test reasons.

Most of the other types of small capacitors: mylar, disc ceramic, etc. are pretty rugged. It is rare indeed to find them bad. It happens just often enough to keep a tech humble. But I also encounters that this small caps are the culprit, and the problem is that they are get leaky.

Here is diagram of the wiring of a Piso Net, which is popular here in the Philippines by using a PC with a Timer and Coin Slot to operate an Internet Cafe even without supervision because it is made to operate automatically. The main issue here is what signal or power source that you will cut to switch it using a relay. Some users are freezing the keyboard and mouse while other cut the signal or power line of the Monitor.
